The village centres on a green surrounded by stone houses and cottages. BuildingsBuildings in the village include St Andrew's parish church, which dates from the 13th century; Greystoke Castle, built by Baron Greystock in the 16th century and which stands in a {{convert|3000|acre|km2|sing=on}} park; the Boot & Shoe public house; and the Cyclists' Cafe. To the east of the village are three folly farmsteads built about 1789 by Charles Howard, 11th Duke of Norfolk, of Greystoke Castle: Fort Putnam, Bunker's Hill and Spire House. St Andrew's ChurchSt Andrew's is a major church building due to its size, which is considerable for such a small parish. It was refounded as a collegiate church in 1382, by William, 14th Baron Greystoke. for a master, seven chaplains and six chantry priests. However the present building, in the Perpendicular style, is reckoned to date from the 16th and 17th centuries. It had a restoration in 1818, and then in 1848-49 it had another restoration under the architect Anthony Salvin. The nave is narrow, but the aisles are wide, with big windows, but it has no clerestory or west window. There are a number of effigies, including William, 14th Baron, and John, 16th Baron. There is an impressive memorial to Henry Charles Howard of Greystoke, designed by Sir Robert Lorimer[2] in the Arts and Crafts style, which dates from 1914.[3] There are six bells which are hung for ringing in the English full-circle style.[4] Notable people
